Koh Puos or Kaoh Puos (Khmer: កោះពស់), Snake Island - named "Île Coudée" (Elbow Island) during the French colonial period) is a small island in the Gulf of Thailand, located about 0.63 km (0 mi) off the coast of Sihanoukville city in southern Cambodia. It is administered by Sangkat 3 of Mittakpheap District in Sihanoukville Province.^[1]

The island has been made accessible via a road bridge, completed in 2011 as part of a development initiative of the Russian Koh Puos Investment Group (KPIG). A long term government concession granted in 2006 was followed by large scale planning of "a high-end property project".^[2] Since, a number of project alterations and subsequent applications for permission at the Council of the Development of Cambodia have led to many delays.^[3][4]
